Clibrans’ Melons {Cucumis melo). 
HT Varieties marked (*) are specially recommended for Exhibition. 
Sow from January to June in pots plunged in a hot bed, the temperature of which should not be less than 80 degrees. 
When the plants have made four or five leaves, plant out in a hot bed or house, the temperature of which should range 
from 75 to 85 degrees. The plants should be kept well thinned and carefully watered, as they are liable to damp off at 
the collar.
